It's time to end the state school with slavery ties in their name.
Where is the outrage and protests, let's don't let a good crisis go to waste.

I concur. If you ever wanna get those fools to show their collective a$$es and look like complete morons, this should be pushed!Quote:

(Though R2 makes fair and valid points)
I have been to the Grove several times and I am amazed those drunk bastards can find their way to the stadium from there.Quote:

I think they should work on excessive force and basic racial equality first. Focus on getting that closer to a more perfect union and then worry about those douchbags.Quote:

If that sentence offends you but replacing his name with Sean Monterrosa doesn't then you're the one with the double standard.

No idea what any of that even means.Quote:

No longer do the actions of the individual matter. If a black person commits a violent crime it is simply due to his or her circumstance and systemic racism is the cure all answer from the left. That is intellectually dishonest.
I can't speak for most conservatives but I can speak on my thoughts. I am fine with the protests and I do believe we can do better as a country when it comes to police brutality. I also believe that individuals that commit violent crimes regardless of color or creed are also guilty and blaming systemic racism is just flat out wrong. People want to focus on the system instead of the individual.
We have 800+ thousand people in Law enforcement. There were 1,000 people killed by police in 2019, 88 of which were African American. That tells me that an overwhelmingly large majority of Police are doing there job somewhat correctly. This doesn't mean that we shouldn't look for change in certain procedures and come up with some way to vet these guys/give them more training. We should absolutely be actively seeking those things that could improve the system. But it will never be perfect because people run the system and people are messy/selfish/insecure/macho etc. So you will still have isolated events like we saw a couple of weeks ago.
The issue isn't the system. Yes, should the system be tweaked absolutely, but the argument to completely change how we do things just doesn't hold any water.
Now I think we could both agree on the fact that there needs to be prison reform, especially for non violent crimes and petty drug charges. Those people should never have to spend a day in jail and its a huge hamstring on taxpayer dollars to simply line some individuals pockets. That is something I am very much in support of.
I just wish people could admit that there is nuance to these topics and it isn't all cut and dry one way or the other, which neither side seems to be open to.
